Isaiah 31:2-4
Common English Bible
2 But God also knows how to bring disaster;
he has not taken back his words.
God will rise up against the house of evildoers
and against the help of those who do wrong.
3 Egypt is human and not divine;
their horses are flesh and not spirit.
The Lord will extend his hand;
the helper will stumble,
those helped will fall,
and they will all die together.
4 The Lord has said to me:
When the lion growls,
the young lion, over its prey,
though a band of shepherds is summoned against it,
isn’t scared off by their noise
or frightened by their roar.
So the Lord of heavenly forces will go down
to fight on Mount Zion and on her hill.
Isaiah 31:2-4

2 Yet he too is wise(A) and can bring disaster;(B)
he does not take back his words.(C)
He will rise up against that wicked nation,(D)
against those who help evildoers.
3 But the Egyptians(E) are mere mortals and not God;(F)
their horses(G) are flesh and not spirit.
When the Lord stretches out his hand,(H)
those who help will stumble,
those who are helped(I) will fall;
all will perish together.(J)
4 This is what the Lord says to me:
